So much more than a planner.

Take control of your schoolwork instead of having it control you!

What is Alta Ipsum?

Alta Ipsum was conceived and created by Benjamin Anagnos, a New York City educator with over 20 years of experience.
Following two years of extensive testing by students in 7th to 11th grade, Alta Ipsum is designed to
help students organize their schoolwork, plan in advance, and track their progress towards academic
goals they set for themselves.

On computers, tablets, and smartphones, Alta Ipsum delivers a set of powerful tools that helps
students get the most out of their education while building critical organizational skills they will
use for the rest of their lives.

Powerful and User-friendly

Both the website and the companion iOS app are simple and clean but contain sophisticated
features that allow you to take control of your work. First you set goals for each of your
classes. Then you simply use it the same way you use your planner – but Alta Ipsum gives you
so much more.

Enter an assignment and Alta Ipsum creates a study plan of dates and times that you can
customize at your convenience. Alta Ipsum helps you think about how and when to complete
each task, so you can avoid doing things at the last minute, get better grades, and achieve your
goals. You can also upload a file or take pictures with your phone. This virtual binder is now
accessible anywhere – no more fear of losing papers!

For graded assignments, Alta Ipsum will recommend a score calculated using your course goal
and current average. You can also set your own goals for individual assignments. Study plans and
recommended scores can be accepted as defaults, so using Alta Ipsum takes less time than
writing assignments in your planner.

The Dashboard and Planner display your assignments
color-coded by subject with a timer feature
to keep you focused and on track. Reminders and upcoming graded assignments can be seen at a
glance. Alta Ipsum will also notify you to record grades, note any mistakes or teacher
comments,
and take pictures for future reference.

The Tracker shows your current average in each class based on the grades
you have entered and
compares it to your goal. There are also graphs that show you how you are doing at any point
during the year. The graphs help you quickly identify areas of weakness so you can put in
extra
study time before an exam or go see a teacher for explanation.
